Holding a thought is like holding a breath - you’re gonna get uncomfortable
✨
Holding your breath doesn’t really make sense and intellectually holding a thought doesnt either but the difference is we don’t usually notice when we’re holding thoughts
✨
A thought can visit us and drift away when we aren’t paying too much attention to it but when we start labelling thoughts they linger for longer
✨
There’s no such thing as positive or negative thoughts they’re just thoughts like there’s no such thing as positive or negative breaths - they’re just breaths
✨
When we treat thought as though it’s neutral it can move along but clinging to it and labelling it is what prolongs our suffering
✨
You are not your thoughts
